Such as, the up-link (UL) on flexible bandwidth UMTS (F-UMTS) and downlink are some embodiments provided (DL) support in, to the SRB of 3.4kbps independence.In umts, following Signaling Radio Bearer speed is generally supported:

1.7kbps:TTI 80ms, SF 512/256 (DL/UL)

3.4kbps:TTI 40ms, SF 256/256 (DL/UL)

13.6kbps:TTI-10ms, SF 128/64 (DL/UL)

In F-UMTS, due to time dilation, can be to time-slot duration, frame duration, sub-frame duration, nothing Line frame duration, TTI carry out the expansion of the Dcr factor, and wherein Dcr could be for the spreading rate divisor of F-UMTS.Dcr's Value can be equal to the bandwidth scale factor (that is, N) in F-UMTS.Therefore, it can data rate is reduced factor D cr times, and Other delay is brought owing to the TTI in F-UMTS scales.Therefore, the SRB speed in F-UMTS can become, such as:

1.7/Dcr kbps:TTI 80xDcr ms, SF 512/256 (DL/UL)；

3.4/Dcr kbps:TTI 40xDcr ms, SF 256/256 (DL/UL)；

13.6/Dcr kbps:TTI-10xDcr ms SF 128/64 (DL/UL).

In one example, forFor the flexible UMTS system of BW (such as, N=2), it is possible to use

Following configuration:

1.7/2kbps (=.85kbps): TTI 80x2ms (=160ms), SF 512/256 (DL/UL)；

3.4/2kbps (=1.7kbps): TTI 40x2ms (=80ms), SF 256/256 (DL/UL)；

13.6/2kbps (=6.8kbps): TTI-10x2ms (=20ms) SF 128/64 (DL/UL).

It should be noted that, can keep constant in terms of the ms of expansion for the TTI of these SRB, but can be definitely Value aspect obtains amplifies, and spreading factor (SF) can keep constant in DL and UL.

The SRB speed reduced can affect the delay in signaling procedure, and this is owing to which increasing signaling message aloft The transmission time.This time delay increase that may cause delay in call establishment increase, switching etc..It should be noted that, at CN etc. In Deng, signaling relevant with call setup between RNC and core NW can not be affected.Additionally, in certain embodiments, one Denier establishes CS RAB, and the CS voice (such as, AMR 12.2kbps) supported on F-UMTS can maintain SRB speed.

Therefore, compared with UMTS, also exist during starting, F-UMTS maintains the motivation of independent SRB speed.? In the case of Gai, for signaling procedure, there is not other delay.Although having provided below the example for 3.4kbps SRB Son, but these instruments and technology can expand to 1.7kbps SRB or other data rate.

Some embodiments be directed to N=2 orDCCH in BW F-UMTS, it is provided that for independent UL:3.4kbps The instrument of SRB and technology.Such as, for N=2 orBW F-UMTS, the TTI of transmission channel can change to 20x from 40ms Dcr ms:

The 1DCH of 4SRBs → 4DCCHs → use 20x Dcr, i.e. 20x 2ms=40ms TTI

The program has been applied to UE (such as, UE 115) and base station (such as, base station 105)

The change of TTI value may assist in maintenance SRB speed on F-UMTS.In some cases, it means that SF is subtracted Little factor D cr (i.e.N) times, to adapt to the other coded-bit of each radio frames.The example of this situation is: be used for The UL SF of 3.4kbps SRB can change to from the 256 of common UMTS N=2 orIn BW F-UMTS 128.In other feelings Under condition, SF reduces perhaps without the other coded-bit adapting to each radio frames, the ratio in the time slot format used Special quantity can be enough.The example of this situation is: remains 256 for the DL SF of 3.4kbps SRB, does not occurs Change.But, in this case, compared with common UMTS, the number of repetition for F-UMTS may be less.

During wireless frame segmentation, 20x Dcr (that is, 20x 2ms)=40ms DCCH TTI can be divided into two The radio frames of 10x Dcr=20ms.Table 1 is according to each embodiment, it is shown that downlink and the example of uplink parameter.

Under the either case that can reduce SF and SF (but repetition can be reduced) cannot be reduced, identical in order to maintain Reliability, can increase transmitting power.Such as, for N=2 orBW F-UMTS, some embodiments can be big by launching power Causing ground and increase factor log2 (Dcr) x 3dB (that is, 3dB), this can compensate SF and reduce or other side.Can be used other Symbol and similar value (such as, 10log10 (Dcr), floor (10log10 (Dcr)), or table inquiry).Identical formula is permissible In other situation described herein.This transmitting power can be carried out increase at both UE 115 and/or base station 105 place. The increase of this transmitting power can exceed the level required for identical power spectral density, therefore compared with common UMTS, no There is the increase in absolute sense.

Owing to TTI value keeps constant in absolute time, the most there is not other delay.

Some embodiments be directed to N=4 orThe UL 3.4kbps DL 3.4kbps SRB of the DCCH in BW F-UMTS, Provide independent instrument and technology.Such as, for N=4 orBW F-UMTS, the TTI of transmission channel can change from 40ms To 10x Dcr ms:

The 1DCH of 4SRBs → 4DCCHs → use 10x Dcr (that is, 10x 4ms=40ms) TTI.

Which can apply to subscriber equipment 115 and/or base station 105.In some respects it should be noted that, N=4 orThe 3.4kbps SRB of BW F-UMTS carrying can be similar to the 13.6kbps SRB of commonly (that is, N=1) UMTS carrying.

The change of TTI value can help to maintain the SRB speed on F-UMTS.In some cases, SF can be reduced because of Sub-Dcr (that is, N) times, to adapt to the other coded-bit of each radio frames.The example of this situation is: for 3.4kbps The UL SF of SRB can from for common UMTS 256 and N=2 orIn BW F-UMTS 128, change to N=4 orBW In F-UMTS 64.In other cases, it may not be necessary to the reduction of SF, to adapt to the other encoding ratio of each radio frames The quantity of the bit in spy, and the time slot format used is enough.The example of this situation is: for N=4 orBW For F-UMTS, can keep constant with N=-2F-UMTS for the DL SF of 1.7kbps SRB.In this case, with commonly UMTS compares, and the number of repetition for F-UMTS can be less.

Can need not wireless frame segmentation, this is owing to the DCCH TTI of 10x Dcr (that is, 10x 4ms=40ms) is suitable for In a 10x Dc=40ms radio frames.Table 8 is according to each embodiment, it is shown that downlink and the example of uplink parameter Son.

Table 13

In certain embodiments, such as, when reducing SF or not reducing SF (but repetition can be reduced), in order to maintain phase Same reliability, can increase transmitting power.In certain embodiments, such as N=4 orBW F-UMTS, can will send out Penetrating power and generally increase factor log2 (Dcr) x3dB (that is, 6dB), this can compensate SF and reduce.Can be at subscriber equipment 115 And/or at base station 105, carry out the increase of this transmitting power.The increase of this transmitting power can exceed identical power spectral density , therefore compared with common UMTS, there is not the increase in absolute sense in required level.

In certain embodiments, owing to TTI value keeps constant in absolute time, the most there is not other delay.When When maintaining SRB speed for flexible bandwidth carrier system (such as, F-UMTS), there is different impacts.Such as, RLC intervalometer May be affected, it is also possible to be not affected.Such as, due to the TTI for 3.4kbps SRB, F-UMTS Yu UMTS is come Saying that holding is constant, therefore RTT can keep constant on absolute value.Owing to TTI with RTT value keeps identical, therefore RLC intervalometer Value can keep identical in absolute time.

For at N=2 and N=4 orInstrument and the technology of 3.4kbps SRB is supported on BW F-UMTS, can be with simply Mode expand to support 1.7kbps, or even other speed.Such as, for 1.7kbps, TTI can be 80ms (substituting the 40ms in common UMTS), for N=2 orFor BW F-UMTS, TTI value can be revised as 40xDcr= 80ms, and in N=4 orFor BW F-UMTS, TTI value can be revised as 20xDcr=80ms.

As it has been described above, some embodiments when the startup in F-UMTS, can maintain the SRB speed of 3.4kbps independence (and/or SRB speed of 1.7kbps independence) rather than 3.4/Dcr kbps (or 1.7/Dcr kbps).Different factors is permissible Affecting this decision, these factors include but not limited to:

The independent SRB speed reduced by Dcr may increase call set-up time and other signaling procedure.

If on startup, do not maintain the independent SRB of 3.4kbps (or 1.7kbps), then TTI is in the ms of expansion Keep constant, and be stretched in terms of absolute time.During RRC connection establishment, the TTI for SRB can be sent with signal. When establishing for the CS RAB of CS voice, the TTI for SRB can be reconfigured so that exist for the TTI of SRB Absolute time aspect keeps constant.In time starting, maintain independent SRB speed, can help prevent SRB TTI is reconfigured.

When maintaining independent SRB speed, TTI and RTT can keep identical in absolute time.Therefore, RLC timing Device value keeps identical in absolute time.In the time of expansion, need simple conversion.

Some embodiments provide the up-link (UL) on flexible bandwidth UMTS (F-UMTS) and downlink (DL) In, the support to the SRB of 13.6kbps independence.Such as, in umts, following Signaling Radio Bearer speed can be supported:

1.7kbps:TTI 80ms, SF 512/256 (DL/UL)

3.4kbps:TTI 40ms, SF 256/256 (DL/UL)

13.6kbps:TTI-10ms, SF 128/64 (DL/UL)

SRB speed in F-UMTS can become:

1.7/Dcr kbps:TTI 80xDcr ms, SF 512/256 (DL/UL)；

3.4/Dcr kbps:TTI 40xDcr ms, SF 256/256 (DL/UL)；

13.6/Dcr kbps:TTI-10xDcr ms SF 128/64 (DL/UL).

Some embodiments be directed to N=2 orDCCH in BW F-UMTS, it is provided that the UL:13.6DL for independent: The instrument of 13.6kbps SRB and technology.Such as, for N=2 orBW F-UMTS, the TTI of transmission channel can become from 10ms Change to 10x Dcr ms:

The 1DCH of 4SRBs → 4DCCHs → use 10x Dcr (that is, 10x 2ms=20ms) TTI.

Which can apply to subscriber equipment 115 and/or base station 105.

Such as, due to TTI 10ms from UMTS increase to N=2 or20ms in BW F-UMTS, in order to maintain SRB Two transmission blocks can be attached by speed.This means SF reduces factor D cr (that is, N) times, each wireless to adapt to The other coded-bit of frame.Owing in this example, TTI and radio frames are all 10xDcr=10x2=20ms, the most permissible There is not wireless frame segmentation, the first intertexture (output=input) can be identified as in umts.

In certain embodiments, can all transmission blocks be carried out connected in series.If the quantity of the bit in TTI is more than The largest amount of the code block in discussion, then can perform code block segmentation after the connection to transmission block.Such as, convolutional encoding The largest amount of code block can be 504.For N=2 orFor BW F-UMTS, code block size can be less than 504, therefore It is made without code block segmentation.Fig. 5 A is according to each embodiment, it is shown that for N=2 orDL in BW F-UMTS: The TrCH process 500 of 13.6kbps SRB.In order to compare, Fig. 5 B is according to each embodiment, it is shown that for N=2 or The TrCH process 550 of the DL:3.4kbps SRB in BW F-UMTS.

In the case of utilizing SF scaling that SRB speed is maintained 13.6kbps, permissible in identical absolute time There is the bit of equal number.But, along with the absolute time of TTI increases, the transmission window size for RLC AM also increases, this It is owing to, in the case of there is no ACK, more RLC PDU can be sent.It should be noted that, according to the transmission of specification The maximum of window size can be 4K, its for N=2 orIt is more than sufficient for 13.6kbps SRB on BW F-UMTS 's.

It should be noted that, the transmission block from same logical channel and Different Logic channel can be attached. Reason is the MAC header (4 bit) of each transmission block can to transmit C/T field, and (that is, which logic this RLC PDU belongs to Channel).Therefore, two connected transmission blocks can be from same logical channel or Different Logic channel.If one Individual above channel has data, then MAC can use configured priority of logical channels determines which to send RLCPDU.Fig. 6 is according to each embodiment, it is shown that to N=2 orThe transmission block of the 13.6kbps SRB in BW UMTS is carried out even The example 600 connect.

Table 14 and table 15 are according to each embodiment, it is shown that for two kinds of alternative arrangements of up-link.The configuration of table 15 The TFCS size of reduction can be produced, and not there is any shortcoming.Table 14 is according to each embodiment, it is shown that for N=2 or The transport channel parameters of the UL:13.6kbps SRB of the DCCH in BW F-UMTS.

Table 20

Table 21 is according to each embodiment, it is shown that physical channel parameters.

Table 21

Table 22 is according to each embodiment, it is provided that DL time slot format-DPDCH and DPCCH field.

Table 22

The time slot format 8 used in table 22 can correspond to for the DL used in the current UMTS specification of compact model Time slot format 8B in DPDCH+DPCCH.For N=2 orFor BW F-UMTS system, owing to there is less bandwidth, and And the sequential and bit requirement to SRB 13.6kbps is probably identical, therefore can reduce spreading factor with increase bit/ The value of time slot and the value of corresponding bit/frame.But, along with corresponding to N=2 orBW F-UMTS, the time expands, letter Road bit rate or channel symbol rate can keep constant.Additionally, compare, speed with common UMTS (that is, N=1UMTS) Join tuning methods can also at N=2 orBW F-UMTS keeps constant.DL DPCH time slot format 8 in table 22 can be with For N=2 orThe DL DPCH time slot format of the AMR 12.2kbps of BW F-UMTS general mode is identical.

In UMTS (N=1), blind transport format detection (BTFD) may be used for DL 13.6kbps SRB, this be due to Downlink is likely not to have transmission transport format combination indicator (TFCI).In DL reference configuration, it is possible to use such as table 23 Time slot format 8 (SF 128) shown in (it illustrates DL time slot format DPDCH and DPCCH field), thereby increases and it is possible to do not have TFCI.In some cases, in the downlink, TFCI existence can be set to false as (False).

Table 23

For N=2, the as shown in Table 23 time slot format 8 reinterpreted can not also have TFCI.At some In the case of, in order to meet BTFD, need to utilize multiple restriction.In order to allow for N=2 orThe DL of BW F-UMTS The BTFD of 13.6kbps, needs to be changed following restriction:

The quantity of CCTrCH bit that each radio frames receives is 600x Dcr or less.

This restriction can be similar to for DL BTFD operation, N=2 orThe AMR that BW F-UMTS is carried 12.2kbps.In the case of each radio frames receives greater amount of CCTrCH bit, it is contemplated that some embodiments are not There is the problem performed on BTFD.

Owing to each radio frames 10x2=20ms connects two transport channel block, therefore the quantity of TFC can be (corresponding from 2 In N=1) increase to 4 (corresponding to N=2).But, for BTFD, TFCS size can be limited to 64, therefore this restriction can Not to be changed:

The quantity of the transformat combination of CCTrCH is 64 or less.

Some embodiments can use such as following restriction:

The summation of the TFS Transport Format Set size of all explicit detectable TrCH is 16 or less.

TFS Transport Format Set size is specified to the quantity of the transformat that this transformat is concentrated.

For N=2 orFor BW F-UMTS, TFS size can be 4, and TrCH can explicitly be detected, by In all transmission blocks CRC with non-zero length can being attached on this TrCH.Therefore, described limit can not still be changed System.

Table 24

Table 24 is according to each embodiment, it is provided that DL time slot format DPDCH and DPCCH field.It should be noted that, The time slot format used in table 24 can correspond to the time slot format 3 used in the UL DPDCH of current UMTS system.For N =2 orFor BW F-UMTS, owing to there is less bandwidth, and the sequential of 13.6kbps SRB and bit requirement are identical , therefore can reduce spreading factor to increase value and the value of corresponding bit/frame of bit/time slot.But, along with corresponding to N=2 orBW F-UMTS, the time expands, and channel bit rate or channel symbol rate can keep constant.With commonly UMTS (that is, N=1UMTS) compares, rate-matched tuning methods can at N=2 orBW F-UMTS keeps constant.Table 25 In UL DPCH time slot format 2 can with for N=2 orThe UL of the AMR 12.2kbps of BW F-UMTS general mode DPDCH time slot format is identical.

Some embodiments provide be directed to N=2 orThe different RLC of the 13.6kbps SRB of BW F-UMTS carrying PDU size.Such as, 13.6kbps SRB, the RLC SDU size in UMTS be could be for 136 bits of RLC UM, with And 128 bits (in both cases, RLC PDU size is all 144 bits) for RLC AM operation.Baseline solution can With will be used for N=2 orRLC SDU and the PDU size of BW F-UMTS remains identical with on common UMTS.But, N=2 OrThe 13.6kbps SRB of BW F-UMTS carrying can use bigger RLC SDU size (such as, 320 bit).In these feelings Under condition, transmission block may not be used in some cases to connect, and can use filling is 320 bits to make SDU size.

Some embodiments utilize launches power adjustment.Such as, owing to SF can be reduced Dcr in UL and DL, to maintain SRB speed, therefore for N=2 orBW F-UMTS, can generally increase factor log2 (Dcr) x 3dB by launching power (that is, 3dB), to compensate the reduction of SF.This can perform at both subscriber equipment 115 and/or base station 105 place.But, launch merit This increase of rate can exceed that the level required for identical power spectral density, therefore relative to common UMTS, does not exist absolutely To the increase in meaning.

Some embodiments can have impact for time delay, it is also possible to time delay is not had to impact.Such as, utilize each Individual TTI, can be sent to PHY by the transmission block that two connect.Certain PHY layer process (assuming that process the time do not enter along with Dcr Row scaling) after, only allow air transmission to start (specification limit due to current) at the boundary of next radio frames.But Be, for N=2 orFor BW F-UMTS system, owing to TTI is 10x Dcr=20ms, and radio frames can also be 10x Dcr=20ms, therefore compared with common UMTS system, it is understood that there may be other time delay.

Some embodiments be directed to N=4 orDCCH in BW F-UMTS, it is provided that for supporting independent UL: The instrument of 13.6DL:13.6kbps SRB and technology.Such as, for N=4 orBW F-UMTS, the TTI of transmission channel is permissible 10x Dcr=40ms is changed to from 10ms:

The 1DCH of 4SRBs → 4DCCHs → use 10x Dcr (that is, 10x 4ms=40ms) TTI.Which can be answered For subscriber equipment 115 and/or base station 105.

Due to TTI 10ms from UMTS increase to N=4 or40ms in BW F-UMTS, in order to maintain SRB speed, Four transmission blocks can be attached.In some cases, SF can be reduced factor D cr (that is, N), to adapt to each nothing The other coded-bit of line frame.Owing to TTI and radio frames may be all 10xDcr=10x4=40ms, it is thus possible to do not exist Wireless frame segmentation, can identify the first intertexture (output=input) as in umts.Fig. 7 A is according to each embodiment, it is shown that For N=4 orThe example 700 of the TrCH process of the DL:13.6kbps SRB in BW F-UMTS.In order to compare, figure 7B is according to each embodiment, it is shown that for N=4 orThe example of the TrCH process of the DL:3.4kbps SRB in BW F-UMTS Son 750.

Can transmission block be carried out connected in series.If the quantity of the bit in TTI is more than the maximum of the code block in discussing Size, then can perform code block segmentation after the connection to transmission block.The largest amount of the code block of convolutional encoding can be 504.For N=4 orFor BW F-UMTS, code block size more than 504, therefore can use code block segmentation.For often After one code block carries out chnnel coding, can the block of coding be carried out connected in series.

In the case of utilizing SF scaling that SRB speed is maintained 13.6kbps, can be identical with common UMTS Absolute time exists the bit of equal number.But, along with the absolute time of TTI increases, big for the transmission window of RLC AM Little also increasing, this is owing to, in the case of there is no ACK, can send more RLC PDU.It should be noted that, root Can be 4K according to the maximum of the transmission window size of specification, its for N=4 or13.6kbps SRB on BW F-UMTS comes Say it is more than sufficient.Fig. 8 is according to each embodiment, it is shown that for N=4 or13.6kbps SRB in BW F-UMTS The example 800 that transmission block is attached.

It should be noted that, the transmission block from same logical channel and Different Logic channel can be attached. Reason is the MAC header (4 bit) of each transmission block can to transmit C/T field, and (that is, which logic this RLC PDU belongs to Channel).Therefore, four connected transmission blocks can be from same logical channel or Different Logic channel.If one Individual above channel has data, then MAC can use configured priority of logical channels determines which to send RLCPDU。

The time slot format 8 used in table 33 can not correspond to the DL DPDCH+DPCCH used in current UMTS specification In any time slot format.But, for some embodiments, it can correspond in a compressed mode, N=2 orBW Time slot format 8B in the DL DPDCH+DPCCH of the AMR 12.2kbps of F-UMTS carrying, and in the normal mode, N=4 OrThe time slot format of the AMR 12.2kbps of BW F-UMTS carrying.For N=4 orFor BW F-UMTS system, owing to depositing In less bandwidth, and the sequential of SRB 13.6kbps and bit requirement are identical, therefore can reduce spreading factor to increase Add value and the value of corresponding bit/frame of bit/time slot.Along with corresponding to N=4 orBW F-UMTS, the time expands, Channel bit rate or channel symbol rate can keep constant.With common UMTS (that is, N=1UMTS or N=2 orBW F- UMTS) compare, rate-matched tuning methods can also at N=4 orBW F-UMTS keeps constant.

In UMTS (N=1), blind transport format detection (BTFD) may be used for DL:13.6kbps SRB, this be due to Downlink is likely not to have transmission transport format combination indicator (TFCI).In certain embodiments, in DL reference configuration, The time slot format 8 (SF 128) as shown in table 33 can be used, and it may not have TFCI.In some cases, exist In downlink, TFCI can be existed and be set to false as (False).

For N=4, the time slot format 8 reinterpreted as shown in table 33 can not also have TFCI.Some are real Execute example and the multiple restriction met for BTFD needs can be set.In certain embodiments, in order to allow for N=4 orBW The BTFD of the SRB 13.6kbps of F-UMTS, needs to be changed following restriction:

The quantity of CCTrCH bit that each radio frames receives is 600x Dcr or less.In certain embodiments, This restriction can be similar to for DL BTFD operation, N=4 orThe AMR 12.2kbps that BW F-UMTS is carried.Each In the case of radio frames receives greater amount of CCTrCH bit, some embodiments can not have the problem performing BTFD.

Owing to each radio frames 10x4=40ms connects four transport channel block, therefore the quantity of TFC can be (corresponding from 2 In N=1) increase to 16 (corresponding to N=4).TFCS size is limited to 64 for BTFD by some embodiments, and therefore this restriction can Not to be changed.

The quantity of the transformat combination of CCTrCH is 64 or less.

Some embodiments can use following restriction:

The summation of the TFS Transport Format Set size of all explicit detectable TrCH can be 16 or less.Can will pass Transport format collection size is specified to the quantity of the transformat that this transformat is concentrated.

For N=4 orFor BW F-UMTS, TFS size can be 16, and TrCH can explicitly be detected, by In all transmission blocks CRC with non-zero length can being attached on this TrCH.Therefore, it is not required that this restriction is carried out Change.

Other time slot format can by as N=2 orThe replacement time slot lattice of the AMR 12.2kbps of BW F-UMTS carrying Formula utilizes.Table 34 is according to each embodiment, it is provided that UL time slot format-DPDCH field.

Table 34

It should be noted that, the time slot format used in table 34 can correspond in the UL DPDCH of current UMTS system The time slot format 4 used.For N=4 orFor BW F-UMTS system, owing to there is less bandwidth, and 13.6kbps The sequential of SRB and bit requirement are identical, therefore can reduce spreading factor with increase bit/time slot value and accordingly than The value of spy/frame.But, along with corresponding to N=4 orBW F-UMTS, the time expands, channel bit rate or channel symbol Number speed can keep constant.With common UMTS (that is, N=1UMTS or N=2 orBW F-UMTS) to compare, rate-matched is adjusted Humorous method can at N=4 orBW F-UMTS keeps constant.

Some embodiments can for N=2 orThe 13.6kbps SRB of BW F-UMTS carrying, utilizes different RLC PDU size.Such as, 13.6kbps SRB, the RLC SDU size in UMTS be could be for 136 bits of RLC UM, and 128 bits (in both cases, RLC PDU size is all 144 bits) for RLC AM operation.Some embodiments can be by For N=2 orRLC SDU and the PDU size of BW F-UMTS remains identical with on common UMTS.N=4 orBW F- The 13.6kbps SRB of UMTS carrying can use bigger RLC SDU size (such as, 320 bits, 640 bits).At 320 ratios In the case of special RLC SDU size, transmission block may be need nonetheless remain for and connect, and filling must be used to make the SDU size be 320 bits.In the case of the RLC SDU size of 640 bits, transmission block can not be used to connect, and filling can be used Making SDU size is 640 bits.

Some embodiments utilize launches power adjustment.Such as, owing to SF can be reduced Dcr in UL and DL, to maintain SRB speed, therefore for N=4 orBW F-UMTS, can generally increase factor log2 (Dcr) x 3dB by launching power (that is, 6dB), so can compensate the reduction of SF.Above-mentioned power adjusts can be located at both subscriber equipment 115 and/or base station 105 Perform.This increase launching power can exceed that the level required for identical power spectral density, therefore relative to commonly , there is not the increase in absolute sense in UMTS.

Some embodiments can have impact for time delay, it is also possible to time delay is not had to impact.Such as, utilize TTI, The transmission block that four connect can be sent to PHY.Process (assuming that the time of process does not contracts along with Dcr in certain PHY layer Put) after, can only allow air transmission to start (specification limit due to current) at the boundary of next radio frames.But Be, for N=4 orFor BW F-UMTS system, owing to TTI can be 10x Dcr=40ms, and radio frames can also It it is 10x Dcr=40ms, therefore compared with common UMTS system, it is understood that there may be other time delay.It should be noted that, calculating During other time delay UMTS, it can be assumed that process postpone consistent with in common UMTS.

Some embodiments be directed to N=4 orDCCH in BW F-UMTS, it is provided that the UL:13.6/2DL to independent: The support of 13.6/2kbps SRB.Such as, for N=4 orBW F-UMTS, the TTI of transmission channel can change to from 10ms 10x Dcr:

The 1DCH of 4SRBs → 4DCCHs → use 10x Dcr (that is, 10x 4ms=40ms) TTI.

Which can apply at subscriber equipment 114 and/or base station 105.Owing to TTI can increase by the 10ms from UMTS Be added to N=4 or40ms in BW F-UMTS, therefore to SRB speed is maintained 13.6/2kbps, can be to two biographies Defeated piece is attached (rather than being attached maintaining 13.6kbps by four transmission blocks).SF can be reduced factor D cr/2 (that is, N), to adapt to the other coded-bit of each radio frames.Owing to TTI and radio frames are all 10xDcr=10x4= , therefore can not there is wireless frame segmentation in 40ms, can identify the first intertexture (output=input) as in umts.

Fig. 9 is according to each embodiment, it is shown that for N=4 orDL:13.6/2kbps SRB's in BW F-UMTS The example 900 of TrCH process.Can the block in TTI be carried out connected in series.If during the quantity of the bit in TTI is more than discussing The largest amount of code block, then can perform code block segmentation after the connection of transmission block.The code block of convolutional encoding the most significantly Little can be 504.For N=4 orFor BW F-UMTS and 13.6/2kbps SRB, code block size can be less than 504, Therefore need not use code block segmentation.It is possible to note that Fig. 9 can be identical with Fig. 5 A.

In the case of utilizing SF scaling that SRB speed is maintained 13.6/2kbps, compared with 13.6kbps SRB, phase The same amount of bits in absolute time halves.Along with the absolute time of TTI increases, the transmission window size for RLC AM also increases Adding, this is owing to, in the case of there is no ACK, can send more RLC PDU.It should be noted that, according to specification The maximum of transmission window size can be 4K, its for N=4 orFor the 13.6/2kbps SRB of BW F-UMTS carrying It is more than sufficient.

Figure 10 is according to each embodiment, it is shown that for N=4 orThe transmission of the 13.6/2kbps SRB in BW F-UMTS The example 1000 of the connection of block.It should be noted that, can be to from same logical channel and the transmission of Different Logic channel Block is attached.Reason is the MAC header (4 bit) of each transmission block can to transmit C/T field, and (that is, this RLC PDU belongs to In which logic channel).Such as, two connected transmission blocks can be from same logical channel or Different Logic channel 's.If more than one channel has data, then MAC can use configured priority of logical channels to determine to send Which RLC PDU.It is possible to note that Figure 10 can be identical with Fig. 6.
